I have so many childhood memories that include your mom, some at her house working on getting yard sale stuff together, some from Loretta’s porch , and some from the Fireman’s Festival where her and my mom would work! She always had a smile on her face when I was around!
So sorry for your loss!!
Sending my sincere thoughts to Lorie and ‘Bud’ and extended family. I have known Evelyn since Lorie was just a baby and her dad called her ‘the peach’. Evelyn and I sat together at football games watching her grandson play football for the Shadyside Tigers. She was so proud of all her grandchildren.
